Movies

[amedia]

Inspired by pocketwitch, I thought I might start listing what movies I see (kinda parallel to the books thing). Can't promise insightful reviews.

During the past week or two, we've seen:

Impromptu About George Sand & Chopin - this was very enjoyable.
The Tall Guy Fun romantic comedy with Jeff Goldblum and Emma Thompson. Includes a hilariously bad show-within-a-show, "Elephant!" - a musical based on The Elephant Man. And an awesome up-against-the-walls room-wrecking sex scene.
The Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. OMG this SUCKED so bad.
The Curse of Frankenstein: How S-L-O-W can a horror movie go? How can Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing NOT be scary?

As you might be able to tell, we're trying to catch up - there are so many movies we really *ought* to have seen by now!

Random memory from the depths of my brain--

that was resurrected by this post. Did you ever see the (bad)Richard Gere remake of Breathless? There's a scene where he comes walking out of a comics shop and a kid (who had been arguing with RG earlier)zooms past on a skateboard and yells, "The Silver Surfer sucks!".

Yeah, that was random, and I'll just stop talking now....

No, don't stop talking - that was fun! And your icon is HIGH-larious!

I have to admit, I not only haven't seen the remake of Breathless, I haven't even seen the original. What a moment, though!

This icon is such win and awesome. I snagged it a while ago and just got around to putting it up.
